Wednesday night in the August evening sun, local gardeners, crafters, bakers, and makers showed up at Capitol Hill’s Miller Community Center to trade their creations.
“It was quite the haul!,” one satisfied trader proclaimed on the Backyard Barter Facebook page. “Roasted Roma’s, aioli, bread, pickles, 2 bags of sung old cherry tomatoes, coconut milk kefir, canned cherries, chutneys, raspberry jams, new potatoes, coriander seeds,mojito mint sprigs and purple basil!”

Hey! I am sorry that I missed the herb-for-corgi exchange today. I have a bunch of mint growing in my back yard. Where can I pick up my new dog?
Great photos, Alex!
Fun Barter this time. Looking forward to the next at the Tilth Fair in September!
The next barter will be Sep 6 at the Seattle Tilth Harvest Festival! You can find more info on the Backyard Barter Facebook page.
